node.js - Where do I find release notes/changelog for common Node.js modules

Question

I'm probably missing something simple, but I can't seem to find what changed in recent versions of popular Node modules. Express, Connect, Stylus, etc...

I realize it is up to the maintainers to write changelogs, and not everyone does. I look through the commits, but that doesn't usually help too much as I'm not super familiar with what a given line of code is for unless it's obvious. It's super handy if there's a list (usually short) of what the changes mean to me as a consumer of the code in (relativly) plain language. Something like this: http://aws.amazon.com/releasenotes/2817276026948755

Am I missing something, or do most modules just not get these (presumably because people are busy and I should fine the time to delve into the source)?

不幸的是，许多模块作者没有包含任何更改日志或历史记录。不过，对您来说幸运的是，一些最受欢迎的产品确实如此。

巧合的是，您发布的所有内容都是由 TJ Holowaychuk 撰写的，他在更新他命名的文件中的变更日志方面做得很好History.md。

• 快递：https ://github.com/visionmedia/express/blob/master/History.md
• 连接：https ://github.com/senchalabs/connect/blob/master/History.md
• 手写笔：https ://github.com/LearnBoost/stylus/blob/master/History.md

寻找一个类似的文件history.md，否则changelog.md你会被提交日志困住。我希望这会有所帮助。
